Harmanpreet explained, “The day I was born, my father was at work, and the family sent him a message that my mother had been taken to the hospital. When I first wore those clothes, no one really noticed. But years later, after I started playing for India, while shifting houses, my mother found them and said, ‘Let me show you the clothes you wore on your first day.’ That’s when I saw the shirt with ‘Good Batting’ written on it.”

The cricket star’s story quickly became an emotional highlight of the episode. Amitabh, always curious, asked what initially inspired her to pick up cricket. Harmanpreet shared how a school principal played a very pivotal role in shaping her early cricket journey.

“One day, my principal saw me playing and told me the school had many sports but no cricket team. He said, ‘If you join, I will create a team because I have girls who play other sports.’ That’s how I got my chance to play in the girls’ cricket team,” she revealed with a smile.
